Datang: God-level Choice

Although Khalid, the commander-in-chief of the Caliphate, was lucky enough to escape from the chaos of the army, he could only escape back to Caliphate with the last thousand of his cronies. The danger was lifted, and nearly half of the Persian territory was recovered

In this battle, under the counterattack of the fierce Cannibal Jedi, the rudimentary prairie people also suffered tens of thousands of casualties. However, stimulated by the wealth of looting, Li Ji ordered Qin Huaidao's command and captured it in the Persian battle. Fifty percent is returned to the individual, and fifty percent is turned over. The leaders of the grassland tribes did not take it seriously. Anyway, the herdsmen were recruited again to join the Persian battlefield.

As for the [-] Tang cavalry archers, due to the long-range attack, the casualties were almost non-existent, the spoils were not much inferior to those of the prairie people, and the morale was very high.

"Mao Gong is worthy of being a famous marshal of the Tang Dynasty, everything has been executed very well!"

Qin Huaidao laughed loudly.

This battle not only fully played the prestige of the Tang Dynasty, but the overjoyed Yi Siai III directly ordered to give all the command of the Persian army to Li Ji, but also quietly consumed the strength of many grassland tribes, perfectly realizing the strategic layout,

And Wang Xuance also used the prestige of the Tang army to win, not only let the Persian royal family agree to fully develop the market for the Tang caravan, but also took the opportunity to expand the influence of the Tang Dynasty and promote the culture of the Tang Dynasty.

Nowadays, within a radius of several hundred kilometers of the Persian capital of Taixi, learning Tang culture, wearing Tang silk, and speaking Tang language has become a new fashion. Instead, it became a sound of praise

"Qin Huaidao smiled and said, it should also make the father-in-law of the Tang Empire's leader Li Erwuliang happy.

"Hahaha, it's just a matter of time before Persia becomes part of my Tang Dynasty."

In the Taiji Hall, Li Ergang immediately burst into laughter after receiving the battle report from Qin Huaidao.

Once the Persian state became part of the Tang Dynasty, the power of the Central Plains Dynasty could reach thousands of miles away in the Western Regions for the first time, surpassing all dynasties in the past.

Li Er can also show off his might and go to Mount Tai to enshrine Zen, tell the world of Wang Qian, and declare that he is the first emperor in history to pretend to force Gu Gu.

"Father-in-law, you might as well publish this good news on the newspaper, and attach the road map from Tang to Persia, so that more people can feel the power of the Tang Dynasty and participate in the maritime trade. According to the information, The Persians are so rich!"

Qin Huaidao smiled slightly.

The Three Kingdoms fever of the Tang Dynasty is still there: it is boiling, and coupled with such propaganda, it will directly turn into a great enthusiasm for pioneering new territories

And the great sailing boom that has already begun to awaken will also accelerate sharply again.

The footsteps of the empire on which the sun never sets are already more than halfway out.

"According to what my worthy son-in-law said, my Tang Dynasty has today, and my worthy son-in-law has the greatest contribution!"

Li Er said with a smile, looking at Qin Huaidao with more and more satisfaction

The most correct thing in my life is definitely choosing to completely trust Qin Huaidao, the son-in-law!

Chapter [-]: Crazy Financial Empire

(The third update! Please complete the order!)

"Father-in-law, there is another good news, that is, after many communications, the King of Persia has agreed to deposit the royal wealth into the Persian branch of the Royal Bank of Datang, and fully open the circulation of money bills in Persia."

Qin Huaidao smiled slightly.

Compared with the Tang Dynasty, which was dominated by copper coins, the gold and silver mines excavated in Persia are very rich.

Although the value of gold and silver coins is much better than that of copper coins, there are also situations in which large-scale transactions and transportation are very inconvenient, making businessmen miserable.

Especially after the outbreak of the war, coins that are inconvenient to transport have become the objects of looting by cannibals. Many people have run away, but after returning to the recovered homeland, as long as they are not too hidden, they have already been looted. looted

Therefore, after the appearance of the banknotes of the Royal Bank of Datang, not only the merchants actively deposited the coins into the Persian branch of the Royal Bank of the Datang, but even many landlords, local tyrants, and dignitaries exchanged gold and silver into banknotes as a precaution. , even booked a ferry ticket to Datang, ready to run away

After all, money tickets are very convenient. A pile of money tickets worth hundreds of thousands of taels of gold and silver can be handled by 987 in a carry-on package, and the same value of gold and silver needs at least a dozen carriages, which is not convenient at all. run away

In addition, if it exists in the Royal Bank of Datang, you can also get a certain interest. You can make some money in vain. Why not do it? Although the interest rate is not high, the annual interest rate is only about [-]%. It is lower than that in the Tang Dynasty, but it adds up to a large amount of income.

Now, with the Persian king signing the "Datang Persian Free Trade Treaty", allowing Datang merchants to trade freely in Persia, and taking the lead in depositing the royal wealth into the Persian branch of the Datang Royal Bank, the entire Persian kingdom is even more effective. Datang money tickets have directly become the currency in Persia and become the first choice for large-value transactions.

"The lack of copper is a stubborn ailment that has plagued the Tang Dynasty since the Wude years. Now, with the circulation of money tickets, it has been relieved to some extent. If we can strengthen the circulation of money tickets according to what my wise son-in-law said, there is no doubt about it! "

After listening to Qin Huaidao's explanation, Li Er let out a long breath and laughed.

Qin Huaidao smiled slightly. With the efforts of Qin Huaidao, in the Tang Dynasty, money tickets have actually replaced gold, silver and copper coins and become the financial payment method of the court to the people and foreign countries, which has fundamentally changed the currency model of the Tang Dynasty.

As long as there is enough gold and silver to rely on, it can be easily exchanged at any time. Coupled with the credit and guarantee of the Tang Dynasty, the money ticket is a real paper currency, which has directly become the most favorable weapon for the Tang Dynasty to launch a financial war.

In the Persian Empire alone, the Royal Bank of Datang has exchanged money tickets for up to [-] tons of gold and thousands of tons of silver. Except for leaving half of these gold and silver as reserves, the rest have been Datang navy fleet transported back to China

Moreover, with the strengthening of the circulation of Datang money bills in Persia, this ratio will be increased again to achieve financial control over Persia.

And through Persia, Datang's money tickets can also reach farther Western Europe and the Eastern Roman Empire, realizing a real global currency process

Today's foreign trade settlement in Datang, gold and silver are only allowed in and not out. Qin Huaidao's goal is to lock at least half of the world's gold and silver in Datang, directly stifling the possibility of other countries issuing currency through gold and silver reserves

As for the role of the world currency, you can understand it just by looking at the later generations of Midi.

The reason why Midi is strong is finance and military, and without strong financial and monetary backing, the huge military cannot be supported at all.

In fact, the Persian Empire today has completely become a vassal of the Tang Dynasty. Not only is the military command in the hands of the Tang Dynasty, but also the dominance of the currency has been completely lost. How long will it take, Persia will become a part of the Tang Dynasty peacefully and naturally

As for the Persian royal family, it can become a wealth and glory, which is also the real core of the treaty between the Tang Dynasty and Persia.

To put it bluntly, Datang used the expedition to ensure the security of the Persian Empire, and the Persian royal family gradually surrendered power in exchange for the survival and wealth of the royal children. For Si Ai III, it's a complete win-win: the deal

As for the Persian dignitaries, the discerning ones have joined the Tang Dynasty together with the royal family. As for those who have no discernment, in the war-torn years, military power is in hand, whether they are rebellious or not, it is entirely up to the Tang Dynasty to have the final say

Wang Xuance is a family of vertical and horizontal, but he is all black and white, and he has never been soft-hearted.

"There is still such a way to open up the territory and expand the soil. The old minister and others have never heard of it, but it is very effective. It is really eye-opening!"

Qin Huaidao's other old father-in-law, Li Daozong, the king of Rencheng, is also full of admiration.

"By the way, how much money does the Royal Tang Dynasty Bank have today, the old minister has always been very curious, can His Royal Highness King Liao reveal it?"
